This monumental piece, created in 1951, stands as a symbol of patriotism and protection, representing the strength and unity of the nation during one of its darkest times.
In this intricate artwork, we see a mother and father standing protectively over their child, embodying the spirit of family and community that sustained Britain through adversity.
